“…where destructive earthquakes are #rare, bldgs are simply not constructed…to cope…, so many collapse resulting in high #casualties. …expect the final death toll to climb to thousands…. #aftershocks are likely, which will lead to further #casualties & hinder #SearchAndRescue,” Bill McGuire, prof of #geophysical & #Climate #Hazards UCL.

Came across that car on my commute. It was parked in Tennyson Street here in Christchurch yesterday late afternoon. Obviously, it was protruding significantly into the traffic lane. Should SUVs be banned from parking in some streets? #roadsnz #hazards #christchurch #nz #photo #roadrules #roadcode

Needless to say, you shouldn't do this. Article gives a tip: search for the SDS (safety data sheet) of products.
"Every product containing hazardous substances must legally have an SDS. So whether you’re using a shampoo, hand sanitiser, vinegar or borax, there will almost certainly be an SDS available."

The #hazards are significant. #Refuse has really poor #structural qualities. People are #killed every year when the hole they're digging in a landfill while looking for #valuables collapses.
re: cost - consider #opportunity #cost as well.

#WeekendReading was all about surface waters in the West and Mississippi delta and the engineering and ethical dilemmas of trying to control water
From NYT Mag: California built its extensive dam network in an unusually calm climate period.
Officials don't want to acknowledge projected superstorm events, problems too big to be solved.

I'm an incoming Ph.D. student in the Department of City and Regional Planning at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, advised by Dr. Miyuki Hino.
I'm interested in climate #adaptation and #resilience, #equity, social and technical #networks, and compound #hazards.
I previously worked in local government performing research and spatial analysis.
When not working, I'm riding #bikes, walking the dog, shooting film, and sampling taco trucks.
